Live or die it’s always live

I come here to this beach which lasts for an hour a day

when the river Thames allows it to

The beach allows me to be

for myself

 

Be with the sound of waves with the nature and its city best

Exist at this moment - wave crashes slowly

 

You came here too

And they do come here

For the same reason

In solitude we try to think things through or not think at all

 while throwing yet another rock

 

in solitude

looking at the ripples

focus on their flow

step by step we all look when someone throws

alone but together

 

a group of strangers we all feel so moved

by our almost achievement

being present at the beach

a challenge these days

and yet its just a fragment of our 24 hour clock

at one point we will move and let go of the present

and the beach

yet there are thousands of us doing the same

in simple mind breaks

or wanting to do just that

what if every moment could be like this?
